The Akuapem North Constituency office of the main opposition National Democratic Congress has slammed the Akuapem north MCE, Barima Awuah Sarpong Asiedu-Larbi for calling for public support in providing a befitting school building for Otareso basic school.
The party has also fingered the Akufo-Addo-led NPP government for failing to improve educational infrastructures within the municipality as expected.
Akuapem North Constituency Deputy Youth Organiser of the NDC, Comrade Ahmed Agbenyadzi disclosed this when the response to the NDC Communicator in an interview with Bryt FM’s reporter directed the MCE to rather resort to the Education Ministry as matter of urgency put up a modern school block for the school as school reopens in September.
He quarried the performance of the Ministry of Education, the MCE and the Government in improving the quality and standards of education.
“It is unfortunate the MCE has to beg for a project that needs urgent attention. Then why is he the MCE, he must be able to lobby for such projects for the municipality instead of turning into a beggar” Comrade Ahmed Agbenyadzi said?
Below is the posy of the MCE after visiting the school:
“A call for help for the students and people of Otareso, one of the poor communities in the Akwapim North Municipality, the Hon. MCE; Barima Awuah Sarpong Asiedu-Larbi took time to visit some selected schools which are preparing their JHS final year students for the upcoming BECE and fortunately he passed through Otareso and the pictures are evidence of what the children are going through. Classes stop immediately it starts raining and teachers also sit under the shed to mark books, so surprisingly the candidates we fully armed for the upcoming BECE, in fact, I am calling for help from all those who will be touched by this appeal”.
